Great Captain!

Summer Ocean Salmon Private Trip6 adults

The guide got us on fish right away. We caught enough to limit but most were wild coho so had to release. We kept enough salmon to split across the group and caught some bonus flounder and rockfish. Jerad is personable and very patient with the less experienced folks on board and all had a great day.

thank you guys! I had a lot of fun with you, even though those wild coho drove me nuts I'm glad you got to reel in so many fish!

    Amazing experience

    Fall Astoria Coho Shared • 3 adults • 1 child

    What a great fishing trip. Jared is an absolute dog! This guy has it all.. A great set-up, a great conversationalist, and he has a stellar side-kick Sadie (an eager chocolate lab) who hates sea lions bit loves catching fish. And, behind it all a fierce determination to find the salmon. Humble and kind, Jared is your guy. take a trip!

    Thank you for such a great review. That's everything I try to make happen in every trip. I'm glad you had an awesome time! Your boys were so much fun to have on board as well. I hope to see you all again soon!

    Jared Salmon Whisperer

    Buoy 10 Chinook & Coho Shared • 2 adults

    we left the dock about 630 we hooked our first fish before 7 o’clock and we fought 10 fish by 10 o’clock. Jared knows exactly where to go and if it’s not hitting, he moves even before you wanna move. This is our second year with him and I’m looking forward to next year. and for the second year in a row, we tapped out he was gonna take us further down the river to catch our last fish after fishing for that Fish for an hour and I said no, we’re good

    great cap and will recommend to everyone

    Lingcod & Rockfish Shared • 2 adults

    I had an amazing bottom fishing trip out of Astoria and could not recommend this guide service more. From start to finish, everything was professional, organized, and fun. The captain was extremely knowledgeable about the local waters, tides, and where to find fish, and he worked hard all day and take extra time to make sure everyone had a great experience and got the fish we wanted. will recommend to everybody who want to experience offshore bottom fishing.

    Reported Catch

    Response from Captain

    I'm so glad I was able to meet you! That was a fun trip and seeing the gray whale in addition to all the fish just made it special. Bobby had a blast meeting you and fishing with you as well. I can't wait for the next trip when we keep a few more of the big rockfish and get you on some more Lingcod.

    Jerod is a great guide!

    Buoy 10 Chinook and Coho Private • 3 adults

    Jerod was a fantastic host and knowledgeable guide. He knew where to go to find fish and crab. We had multiple times where we were in fish and all hooked up and were reeling in fish at the same time. We even landed two fish in one net as that was how quick it all happened. Jerod was knowledgeable about the area and the resources and genuinely cared that we had a good exeperience fishing and in the area. He is a really interesting peraon too with lots of interesting stories to tell. We will definately use Jerod and his company again to plan pther fishing excurions! Thanks Jerod!
